He could beat the horse to death with a bat. Of course you can do that to a car as well. :dance:

This is why I don't want to buy a car.

But I do think I've decided opn a mode of transportation: scooter.

Mmmm Scooters... Of course, they're only good for about four months out of the year here. But we need more scooter riders, because (other than myself) I've only seen two or three in town.

I am (hopefully) moving to Olympia, Washington next fall. I buy the scooter this winter, shine it everyday in my house, then ride it from April-whenevr I leave.

What type of scooter do you own? I wanted a Vespa or Lambretta, but I have no form of mechanical skills, and the cost of shipping it up + the cost of a restored one = more than I want to spend. I'm currently eyeing a Stella, which is a new scooter than looks exactly like a Vespa. I think they got the nod from Piaggo to build in the old V-design.

Olympia? Cool!

Just don't drink Olympia beer... it's only good for one thing: company.

Haha, yes, all the hipsters drink PBR.

I rarely drink, but lately I've been digging cheap table wine.

Just slam a straw in the top and treat it like a super-size juice box.

Heh... that would be cool.

Alright, back on topic. It is all about me after all :P

Anyway, final update today. I'm at the dentist and my cell rings so I opt to not answer. I check the message, it's Jeff, call me back he says.
Call him back from work, he's just talked with the mechanic for the heads and they have them, but do not have the proper equipment to work on them :lol: I actually started laughing out loud on the phone. I couldn't stop, this is histarical. The only thing left to do is laugh and kill, not necessarily in that order. So Jeff call Chris and Chris says that they'll have to look at doing a couple different things and he'll call Jeff in the morning. Jeff tells him that really there isn't much else to do besides replace them. So apparently Chris will call Jeff in the morning to tell him to go ahead and replace the heads that we know now can't be fixed. :shock:
I'm going home. The adventure will continue tomorrow.

Too bad I'm under 21. I'd be buying wine on a regular basis.
